In my paintings, characters of opposite nature interact and I depict their meeting separation, laughter and tears, joys and sorrows, victory and defeat, youth and old age through different shades of colour and moods. Through them I am able to compensate for my losses in life. The doll is symbolic of my unfulfilled childhood; the flower-vase a lure of love. Life is full of many precious moments, and which form the solid foundation of my creations; they make the canvas eloquent. The experiences of daily life act as the inspiration. But things beyond our reach attract us nonetheless. The plots of my graphic comes from the pages of history and are sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract. They are present in a maze of colours and shades, in the form of nameless flower or a strange animal or an unknown woman. And time and again there appears in my paintings, I do not know why, an imaginary stretch of land, rolling and colourful, through which I never had a stroll because it exists only in the realm of my imagination."
